"War Stories" lyrics - BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG

Snow falls and we make our way to frontiers we are sent
Delay can be dangerous, danger 'til the end

[Pre-Chorus:]
Back against the wall
Young men heed the call
Prisoners take control
Soon be going home

[Chorus:]
War stories, Sergeant Fury
War stories, Captain Hurricane
War stories, Johnny Red
War stories, this is it, this is it

Nightfall and the tanks roll by, I see them lie in vain
Scared that I'm prepared to die, I smile to hide my pain

[Pre-Chorus:]
Gonna save my soul
In the all-time low
Generals keep score
Soon be going home

[Chorus:]
War stories, Sergeant Fury
War stories, Captain Hurricane
War stories, Johnny Red
War stories, this is it, this is it

[Bridge:]
V-E is they say
Liberation Holiday
Invasion all a game
We're in sight of victory

[Pre-Chorus:]
Up against the wall
Young men heed the call
Prisoners, oh
Soon be going home

[Chorus:]
War stories, war stories
War stories, Johnny Red, war stories
War stories, Sergeant Fury
War stories, Captain Hurricane
War stories, Johnny Red
War stories, this is it, this is it

[Outro:]
This is it, this is it
This is it
